Read and Release Canine Course testimonials with photos

“When I first tried the Masterson Method, Bear became very fidgety and realized he might be carrying a lot of anxiety. Bear still loves to retrieve, but he is not so obsessive about it. I am very pleased with his progress and new behaviors and excited to see what might be next for him.”

“I think that doing an initial online course, rather than just reading through the book (even though the QR video clips are very helpful), is a good motivator to get started on working with dogs!  The group had a relaxed atmosphere. Having the instructor do the demonstration first and then our practice with instructor feedback worked very well.”

“Lola is now more connected with me and trusting of me.  She has more energy and a “spring” in her step now.  I’m amazed of the positive changes!  I recommend the Read and Release course for dog owners, rescue facilities, foster homes, or anyone involved with dogs.”

“I was finding it hard to bond and connect with my new dog, Scout.  The course has helped me build that relationship with him.”

“I wish I had filmed Pixie before I took the Masterson Method Canine Read and Release Online Training Class because Pixie’s movement before and after the class instruction is so amazing!  To see her move more freely now brings me much joy. What a special way to give back to a longtime canine friend!”

“Mac and I entered the course a few weeks after surgery for a CCL and Meniscus tear.  What we walked away with was a confident and content dog with an ‘exceeding recovery expectations’ note from his doctors and full recovery.  We are fully mobile and able to resume guarding the farm. Thank you Masterson Method!”

“There is more of an overall connection with Banner.  I can help him calm down and relax, and it is another aspect of where we have improved our relationship overall. The Read and Release was great course and I look forward to using the Masterson Method with the dogs I have in for training.”
